Toning is not at all a factor in the price of a modern Zlincoln. The price is in the original condition of the coin. I bought my last MS68 RD for...
@cpm9ball I couldn't completely rule out that possibility. But looking at the rest of the coin, and the bubble look especially in and around the...
Sorry I see lite scuffing all over the coin. Specifically on and to the right of the 5. Flattening and flash on the high point of the shield. But...
I am at 63PL. Still those photos are difficult to read. The reverse seems to have a lot of flow lines. Creating a more lustrous than PL look but...

@cpm9ball I thought the die scratches were a given. I do think that the area around ONE is plating blisters and if they are present on the coin,...
I couldn't keep mine in time so I took the coins out.

I also think that the first strike slabs are a gimmick. @iPen if you want to know which coins are the actual first strike it will be in the...
Did you possibly look and see if there was a final stage cud or even a preliminary retained cud, that fit this coins die cracks? Because if there...
Altered surfaces.
I am not trying to pick on ya. But Man can you use a little puctuation. Most of your reply's just read on. They are extremely hard to understand.
So the crack must be continuous from rim to rim in order for it to be a retained cud. I see 2 small cracks from rim to wheat ear. But nothing else.
